the federal deficit came in second with 20%. the numbers suggest that americans simply do not feel like the recent economic gains the nation has been seeing is actually coming to their doorstep. more than 50% said they thought the economy is still in a recession. 79% describe the economy as not so good or poor. analysts expect the president's job ideas that we're going to hear tonight will be repackaged versions of proposals he's made during his first term. aides say there will be some new initiatives too so we'll be watching for that. of course the backdrop of this address is the march 1 deadline for averting automatic across- the-board spending cuts known as sequester. lawmakers want to push it back for a second time to create space for a larger reduction plan. we'll be watching for new ideas because we certainly would like to hear some. >> some are saying it's going to be a extension of the state of the union and the election has consequences and other people are hoping for more bipartisanship. it will be interesting. >> that

reducing the deficit is important to all americans. how specifically will he get tonight to talk to what cuts need to be made? >> i think he will make at least three points. we have as ugly as it has been, we have cut the deficit and the majority of that has been through spending cuts. there have been rev you ins on the top 1%. he will make clear we need to go further to get the deficit reduction that we need to do and he will make a call for bipartisanship and compromise. he will be clear we need to do smart entitlement reform and having sensible savings. he will stress it has to be done in a balanced way that means you could raise some revenues through closing loopholes as part of tax reform and try to suggest that this type of bipartisan compromise where you focus on both spending cuts and revenues together. if we follow that path we can avoid the harsh impacts on the economy and shut down and threats of default that we think will only happen if people take an ideological position and say we can't have a single penny and all deficit

and investing in our people. >> now, you hear that brief mention of the deficit there so they say inside the white house the president does want to bring spending down, but when he mentions the word investment, republicans like speaker boehner, as you noted think it's more about government. he said i don't think he has the guts to do it. he doesn't have the courage to take on the liberal side of his own party, never has. so interesting on a night when we might see both sides come together at least a little bit and talk about what they may get done in this new congress that's meeting now. instead, you have a president who is planning to give perhaps a more partisan speech and a republican speaker laying down the gauntlet before this speech and saying he doesn't think the president has the guts to cut spending and really tackle the deficit. >> alisyn: that does not sound like a harbinger of coming together of both sides. >> they'll be up there tonight together. so that could make for an interesting little moment. >> alisyn: all right, we will be on the lookout for all of those moments, ed
